The officer and soldier held the money bag in his sleeve and hesitated for a moment, then looked left and right for a while, and then attached himself to the ear of the prefect Xu and said. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

"The fire in Xiangyang Mansion is involved in a murder."

After saying that, the officers and men did not say another word and hurriedly stood back in their positions.

And Governor Xu was completely stunned, he thought about the words of the officer and soldier just now.

But he really couldn't understand how such a seamless arrangement could be discovered, if it weren't for conclusive evidence, no matter how powerful the Henan prefect was, he wouldn't dare to rashly surround the mansion of the Xiangyang officials.

Only then did Governor Xu finally understand the seriousness of the matter, and he began to sit still more uneasy, and he even regretted his original decision.

Governor Xu is now like a fish on the board to be slaughtered, and the current situation makes him have no ability to resist, and he can't even discuss a thing or two with Ma Tong.

Of course, he didn't know that Liu Tiequan and Gu Chengze were also sent to Henan Mansion, and Xie Nanhao came over with Xie Zhuoyan before.

He was accompanied by more than a dozen relatives of officers and soldiers who went to Wenqu Town to attack Xie Zhuoyan.

The trial in Henan Province went very smoothly, and because the biggest suspect, Governor Xu, was not present, the scene only unilaterally listened to the victim's statement.

At this time, the frozen dead bodies in the lobby of Henan Mansion were brought in again, because they had been refrigerated in the ice cellar, the corpses did not decompose, but their faces were already blurred with flesh and blood, and they couldn't tell who was who.

After the trial, Liu Tiequan stated everything that happened to him to the Qian Governor's Mansion, and the Qian Governor's Mansion did not ask any more questions after knowing the general matter before.

The relatives of the deceased were then summoned into the lobby.

When Master Gu finally arranged for someone to eliminate the identities of all the deceased, he immediately found his relatives and informed them of the cause and effect of the deceased's death, and they have been crying intermittently since they knew the news.

And Gu Chengze also told them in advance about the deceased's face being cut by a knife after telling them the cause of death, although all the relatives had already been mentally prepared, but when they saw the rows of deceased with pale faces and scratches, they still couldn't help crying even more heartbreakingly.

"My son!"

"Big brother!"

"Dude!"

They shouted for their loved ones as they stepped in, and then looked carefully at the dead on the ground one by one, and after a while they recognized their loved ones.

Blood is thicker than water, and even if their faces have been ruined so that they can't see a trace of their original appearance, they still remember the person they know best.

The atmosphere in the lobby of the Henan Mansion instantly changed from serious and stereotypical to the sad scene of life and death, which was almost uncontrollable.

Xie Zhuoyan knelt in the center of the hall, her face gloomy, her hands clasped nervously, and her ears were filled with the cries and calls of relatives.

Xie Zhuoyan used to think that she had never done anything to be sorry for anyone, and she felt that she had enough reasons for every step and every decision, so Xie Zhuoyan could live a frank and unrestrained life.

But only this time, Xie Zhuoyan felt sorry for these crying people, sorry for these cold corpses lying on the ground.

"Silence during the opening of the hall." Qian Zhifu was almost crying when his relatives cried, and said loudly.

The officers and soldiers in the two rows of the lobby also slammed the long sticks in their hands on the ground.

The crying people in the lobby gradually went from crying to sobbing, until the last cry ended, and they all knelt in front of the Qian Governor's Mansion.

Only then did Governor Qian ask, "Do you recognize these people?" ”

In fact, this sentence does not need to be asked at all from the current situation, but the opening notes are true, and these passing questions cannot be left behind.

"Yes, of course I do, my lord."

Everyone nodded in reply, and raised their hands to wipe their tears from time to time.

"Do you know if they were in the Xiangyang Mansion during their lifetimes? Can I testify in court? ”

"Yes, my lord, my son was a soldier in the Xiangyang Mansion before his death, it is true, I am willing to testify!"

"Yes, so is my son."

"My eldest brother too."

"We can all testify, my lord."

Everyone already clearly understood the ins and outs of the matter, and naturally knew that if they wanted to seek justice for their deceased relatives, they had to testify that they were once officers and soldiers of the Xiangyang Mansion, so everyone rushed to agree.

Qian Zhifu nodded, waved his hand, and someone next to him stepped forward with a stack of rice paper, and sent it to the relatives who were kneeling on the ground.

"If there are no other objections, then sign and sign this piece of paper." Qian Zhifu said.

Then the trial came to an end, and Xie Zhuoyan just answered the ins and outs of the matter truthfully and then did nothing else.

When the case of the Qian Governor's Mansion was dismissed, two officers and soldiers came forward to arrest Xie Zhuoyan, but seeing that Xie Zhuoyan did not cooperate, but just stared straight at the floor under his feet with two eyes and seemed to be distracted.

The two officers and soldiers didn't know what to do, so they had to call: "Grandma Gu." ”

Xie Zhuoyan came back to her senses at this time, and Gu Chengze and Xie Nanhao both noticed Xie Zhuoyan's abnormality and rushed over to ask about the situation.

"What's the matter, Thirteenth Sister?"

"Miss Xie is alright?"

But Xie Zhuoyan didn't answer them, and her ears still began to fill with the heart-rending cries of the relatives behind her, and Xie Zhuoyan only felt that her heart hurt as if she was clenched by a big hand.

After a moment, Xie Zhuoyan's feet moved slightly, and then she turned around and walked towards the relatives as if she had made up her mind.

The relatives were immersed in their own grief, and no one noticed the sudden arrival of the people around them.

"Right...... I'm sorry. ”

Xie Zhuoyan stood next to her, trying to calm herself down.

But the relatives didn't seem to hear Xie Zhuoyan's voice as low as a mosquito, and they still wiped their tears and sobbed.

"It's me!" Xie Zhuoyan lowered her head and shouted, "I scratched their faces with a dagger!" ”

Finally, everyone was stunned for a moment, and the crying stopped abruptly, and they all looked at it in confusion.

"I'm sorry everyone, I, I've deprived you of the right to see your loved ones for the last time, I ...... I apologize to you, if you want to beat or scold, you can come casually! ”

Xie Zhuoyan is not a person who will apologize, she doesn't even know how to apologize, but she knows that what she owes has to be repaid, she would rather let these people rush up and beat and scold a few times, so that they are relieved, and Xie Zhuoyan is also at ease.

Yes, the bigger reason why Xie Zhuoyan came to apologize was that she was uneasy, she felt that she was not a kind person, never was.

All she wanted was peace of mind now, and as long as she paid off the debts she owed to everyone, she could leave here without any care, and she didn't ask for anyone's forgiveness. (To be continued.) )
